Estimated, not guaranteed — a free bet pays your winnings and keeps the stake, so it's worth less than the headline figure.
What it's really worth
The headline is £5.00. Allowing for the way the reward actually pays out, a realistic range is £3.50–£4.00. An estimate, not a promise — and it's lower than the headline because a free bet returns your winnings and keeps the stake.
Is it worth it?
This is an existing-customer promotion, which changes how to judge it — there's no signup to weigh up, so the only question is whether it's worth using when you were betting anyway.
Realistically it returns about 19% of your £20 qualifying stake — roughly £3.50 to £4 of usable value against a £5 headline.
That's middling against the existing-customer promotions we currently track — it beats 44% of them on our score.
The part worth knowing before you start: the reward expires after 7 days, so it suits someone betting that week rather than someone saving it.
Best for
- People who already bet with 888sport
- Anyone who wants it done in one step
Think twice if
- Only 7 days to use it
- You'll need an account already — it's not a signup offer
How it works, step by step
- 1Place a qualifying bet of £20.
- 2Wait for that bet to settle — the reward follows settlement, not placement.
- 3£5 is credited to your account.
- 4Use it within 7 days — anything left after that is lost.
A worked example
- You stake
- £20
- Reward credited
- £5
- Free bet placed at 2.00, and it wins
- £5 returned
- You keep
- £5 — the stake stays with the bookmaker
- Realistic value across outcomes
- £3.50–£4
A worked example, not a prediction — it shows how the offer settles if the bet wins, and says nothing about whether it will.
